Split the infotainment screen to show nav and music?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I did something to my AT4 infotainment screen to have it split to show both audio and nav (each on half the screen).   I can't figure out how to make it do this again.   I do not have my "infotainment manual" handy.   Does any one know how to do this (or have a link to a pdf of the infotainment manual)?   This might make a good addition to the "post cool feature discoveries on your T1" thread.   If my 2016 sierra had this feature then I never used it.

Swipe to the right from the "home" screen

Also, once at either of the home screens the soft and hard home buttons will toggle between the two views.

Is this only availible on the 2019 models?
My 2013 avalanche NAV can do it...

Have you tried turning down the brightness control on the left hand side of the steering wheel? The unit also has a Display Mode under Settings > System > Display > Display Mode.

There was a glitch with my loaner where the screen wouldn't dim at all with the automatic lights. If I cycled the headlight switch from "auto" to "off" and back to "auto", it would then turn it's brightness down as it should. If yours isn't dimming at all, I would try that. Obviously it's not a fix but at least a temporary work around.

Yeah, but still bright

Does the Brightness Control work for any Dash Lights with the Light Switch in Auto or Headlamps ON while it is dark out?

I'm having a similar problem with my Trail Boss only it is the opposite, too dim during the daylight, can't see screen very well. If I cycle the headlight switch to off and back to auto it will brighten. Night time brightness is not a problem for me.

Same here with it being Dim in the day. Didn't really notice it until this weekend (first time in a while sun was out). Dim such that it was hard to read - almost like it was set to be dimmed when the headlamps are on.

    • You could try a used 1, they used that engine in the Astro vans, Plenty of them in the boneyard. Look for a wrecked or rotted 1 so the chance that it was scrapped for that reason and not a mechanical issue will be greater
    • Google converting 98 4.3 spider injection to carburetor if all else fails. 
    • That computer lies!
    • My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.  
    • The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.
